Die Tote Stadt: Estonian National Opera

About the Event

Enjoy this concert performance of Korngold's masterwork performed by outstanding soloists and the Estonian National Opera Orchestra under the baton of Vello Pähn in the Estonia Concert Hall.

“Die tote Stadt” is Korngold’s first full‐length stage‐work and it gained immediate international recognition. The emotionally gripping operatic psycho‐thriller tells about the difficulty of letting go and about the necessity to let go. Korngold’s score, resembling Puccini and Richard Strauss, is lyrical and theatrically vivid and takes the audience on a rollercoaster ride to the dark side of a man’s psyche.
